THE DEMAGOGUE TUCKER.

The Gazette, published at Alexandria,
in Representative fuckers own State,
and one of the most influential journals
in Virginia, hits Mr.. Tucker some
severe blows in the following editorial
paragraph: 1.-THE constitution of
Virginia provides: That no man shall
be enforced, restrained, molested or
burdened in his body or goods. or
otherwise suffer on account of his
religious opinions or belief, but all men
shall be tree to profess, and, by argu-
ment, TO maintain their opinions in
matters of religion, and the same shall
in nowise affect, diminish or enlarge
their civil capacities. And the general
assembly shall not prescribe any
religious test whatever It also de
clares that religion cannot be directed
by force or violence, and that all men
are equally entitled to the free exercise
of religion according to the dictates OF
conscience. 1t also declares that the
right of ecclesiastical bodies in and to
church property conveyed to them by
regular deed of conveyance shall not be

preservation against the assaults OF the
common enemy. How unitedly they
will vote and how faithfully they will
perform their political duty to each
other was demonstrated in Ogden the
other day, when there was danger of a
Liberal majority. The vote was
much larger than ever before,
and there was less scratching
of the ticket than ever occurred
at an Ogden election. In the event of
the Tucker Edmunds bill becoming a
law, the Ogden experience would be
repeated in every county, city and pre-
cinct in the Territory, and $1,000 votes
would be cast by Mormons, against the
Lib rails 1000.
These are facts and figures, and be-
cause they are facts and figures, the
rule-or-ruin gang is sick at heart over
the proposed law, and is only pre-
vented from denounciDg all who con-
sented to the important changes in the
Tucker bill by the knowledge that the
consenting ones were the gangs best
friends and ablest champions.

HE'S LEARNING.

Chief Justice Zane announced in
Court on Monday that he proposed to
withdraw his long standing offer of
leniency to polygamists who would
promise to obey the law in future,
holding the offer open only to those
who ceased the polygamous relation
when the prosecutions began. 1t would
seem from this that His Honor is at
last learning what every body else knew
all the time, that the Mormons are sin
cere in their belief in the rightfulness of
the practice of .polygamy, and that
being sincere and honest in their belief,
proffered exemption from punishment
cannot induce a change in their sin
Ger ty. The Judge may as well with
draw his offer entirely. Those who
want to take advantage of it will either
not be arrested, or will apply for
leniency without being coaxed to do so
by the court and its officers.

SOME FIGURES AND FACTS.

1t will be found, after a very careful
estimate, that there are in this Terri
tory between q, 600 and 5000 persons
who can legally exercise the election
franchise. This does not include polyg-
amists who were disfranchised by the Ed
munds Act of 1882, nor the women who
are now entitled to vote, but from whom
it is proposed to take the suffrage. Of
this number between 1000 and 5000 are
classe6 as Liberals, though it would
perhaps be more proper to designate
them as non-Mormons rather than
anti Mormons, which latter term is
synonymous with Liberals. Non Nor
mons are not all anti-Mormons at cleo
ton time, as has been demonstrated at
every election held here during the past
, dozen years. II the contest were close,
and there were a probability of the Lib
eraI ticket being chosen, it would be
found that very considerable percent
age Of the Gentiles would vote for the
Mormon ticket, as they prefer honest
economic government to the reckless
ness and extravaganza, if not open dis
honc sty, which would. attend a Libersl
administration. But suppose the non
Mormons should stick together, and
cast their 1000 votes for he Liberal
ticket. what would be gained from the
passage of the Edmunds-Tucker bill ?
There is no question as to what the
Mormons will do; they will stand
frmer and closer than ever before, this
assault upon them having the effect to
unite them for self-protection and self

DIsGUsTED LIBERALS.

So disguised are they becoming as
they read and re-read the Edmunds-
Tucker abortion, and comprehend its
full insignifcance, that we shall not be
surprised if the Liberals fall to and abuse
their lobbyists, Messrs. Baskin and
Bennett. These gentlemen have sent
scores of messages OF congratulation to
the League managers in this city, have
praised the bill without stint and have
encouraged the League members to be
prompt in the payment of the fifty-cent
dues by saying it took money to get so
glorious and gobbling a measure
through Congress. The Busy Bs might
have been excused for their misleading
messages on the score that they had
been deceived by Congressman, but for
the fact that after the bill had been
changed and greed upon by the con-
ference committee as it has since passed
Baskin and Bennett had both tele-
graphed hear,y endorsements of the
measure. 1t would appear almost as if
the delegates" cared less for the bill
than they did for the money they were
extorting from the Loyal League. Any
bill was good enough for them, SO long
as it brought large and prompt con-
tributions to the corruption fund. They
have been pretending to work like bea-
vers all winter, and the results the pos
sibility of law which adds nothing to
the power of the Liberals, which gives
them no more power to steal and plum
der than they enjoyed before, and will
not help them in the least in
their work of persecution and op-
preston. If the Bs, when the
conference committee drew the
fangs from the bill and presented a
comparatively harmless measure, had
telegraphed their disappointment and
protestations, they might have re-
tanned their places in the affections of
the Liberals, and gone on for years
bleeding" the poor Leaguers in the
interest of further legislation against
the Mormons. The delegates, however,
telegraphed their approval of the emas
culated bill, and now tle Liberals are
asking themselves what kind of men
Baskin and Bennett are, and wonder
ing if the dollar, and not legislation
was not the inspiration actua;ing the
GENTLE delegates" One Liberal was
heard to say, yesterday, that Baskin
and Bennett ought to feel very chear,
considering the money they had ex-
pended and the "blow" they had made
oyer their doings. |
Il will hardly be charged that the
lobbyists mentioned sold out to the
Mormons, but it may be set down as
settled that Baskin and Bennett will
never again be sent to Washington by
Utah Liberals to work for anti Nor
mon legislation,

THE PINKERTONS.

The heads of the Pinkerton bureau
have brought suit for libel against the
Mayor of Jersey City. In the early
days of the late coal strike some of the
railway companies shipped in gang Of
Pinkerton's men to protect their prop
erty and guard the non-union men who
took the places of the strikers. One
day some urchins playing in the neigh.
-borhood of the guard" began snow
balling the Pinkertons when the latter
fired on the lads, killing one of the
boys. Public indignation was so great
over tie outrage that the Pinkertons
were withdrawn; if they. had not been
taken away it is probable the people
could not have been restrained from
wreaking terrible revenge on them.
The Mayor of Jersey city denounced
the bringing in of the Pinkertons, de.
claring that the city was able to pre-
serve order and furnish the necessary
protection for life and property; after
the killing the Mayor became vehement
in his denuneiations and character
ized the Imported" soldiers in Ian
guage both forcible and indignant,
whether or not it was true. 1t was be-
cause of his vigorous language
that suit was brought against him
for libel. The outcome of the suit,
it is hoped, will be the complete
yindication of the Mayor and the con-
sequent approval of his protests and
utterances.
1t is about time for American COM
munities to sit down on the Pinkerton
outfit and ways. For years corpora
tons have been in the habit of applying
to the Pinkerton bureau for men when |
any dirty work was to be performed. |
The bureau has an army of roughs and |
toughs which it carries from one city |
to another and hires out to railway
companies or others having trouble
with their own men. These fellows are |
employed to fight if necessary, as men |
In the west are sometimes hired to |
jump" mine, or re- take mine that
has been Jumped. They are armed,
drilled and under the direction |
of officers as irresponsible as they
are reckless and overbearing. In some
places they are sworn in as sheriffs
and copstables of the districts where
they operate, butin most instances they
are employed independently of the i
local authority. Whenever "Pinker-
ton squad" enters city it is con-
fession of weakness or cowardice on the |
part of the local government; it is an |
announcement that the local commu-
nifty is without the power to enforce its |
authority, or that the community |
thinks it would be morally wrong to
enforce its authority. In either case
the officers and the people do not like
the idea of roughs and Hessians com
ing among them to maintain the law
and preserve order. 1t is time that the
Pinkerton business was squelched, and
the preservation of peace and the pro
lection Of property feft to the proper
authority.

The Episcopal Churches of the City
Hold Their First United Lenten Ser
vice-Rev. E. 9. Lines Sermon.
The first of the united Lenten services of
the Episcopal churches of this city was held
at Trinity church last evening. Rev. DIR. Har
wood and Rev. Fl. P. Nichols of Trinity
church, Rev. DIR. Beardsley of St. Thomas
church, Rev. E. S. Lines and Rev. Charles
G. Camp of St. Paul's church, Rev. Charles
E. Woodcock of the Church of the Ascension,
Rev Mr.. Morgan of Christ church, Rev. DIR.
". E. Vibbert of St. James church, Rev.
Mr.. Whitney of Christ church, West Haven,
all occupied seats in the chancel. The au-
dience nearly filed the church. The services
were opened by singing by the boy choir of
Trinity church
The sermon was preached by Rev. Mr.
Lines. His topic was, ''The work and power
of the Holy Ghost in the administration of
the church of Christ" He spoke of this age
and the dispensation of the Holy Spirit. There
are fuller and higher privileges in this age
| The work of the Holy Spirit can be seen in
| the guiding and controlling of the church.
He spoke particularly of the church being
inspired by the Holy Spirit as an organism
and not mechanism. The church is body
and the Holy Spirit is the life of that body.
Each individual member of the church is a
| part of that organism, individually assisted
| by the Holy Spirit.
Mr., Lines was about half an hour in deliv-
ering his sermon. There are to be held at
Trinity church six more of these united
services each Wednesday evening at 7:30
o'clock until the 9th of April At the unit
ed services next Wednesday night Rev. Stew
art Means will deliver a sermon on "Tne

Wooden Wedding.

Mr.. William s. Phelps, driver of Hose 4,
and wife celebrated their wooden wedding on
Tuesday evening, large and very sociable
party being present to celebrate the happy
event. 1t was a complete surprise to Mr..
Phelps, who was not let into the secret I'M
til everything was in readiness and the COM
pany all assembled. He was on duty at the
engine house as usual and had retired for the
night when he was awakened and informed
that his presence was desired at home on
urgent business, and most agreeably
alarmed" but responded to the 'call'' with
his usual promptness. Music and dancing
enllvened the occasion until the early hours.
A sumptuous banquet was enjoyed such as
only steamer 4's men know how to get up,
and many handsome and useful presents
were left by the visitors to show the esteem
in which MIR. and Mrs. Phelps are held by
their many friends, and the party broke up
wishing them many more happy years of
welded life.
